Gheez, I know I live under a rock sometimes. OK, so I decided to finally google the ill effects of BPA. Just did a little bit of reading.

OK, which number are safe to use?

Meaning one way suggested is to tell by the recycle number if one present. For example, bottled drinking water is a 1, and I think not said to have BPA.

But what about 4? The first thing I thought of was my beloved cheap water bottles for riding. They are nice and soft and squishy, simple, etc etc. I love em, hope they don't have BPA. Also, I think a number 6 is said to have BPA. Yikes, that's our basic cheap glasses we use regularly (kids don't break em).

TO OP... sorry about slight side track, but I guess imporant to know if you are getting plastic for your containers. We have an assortment atm. Some old Tupperware. Glass Pyrex with rubber lids. Baggies are easy if it works for your food travel. Though not as environmentally friendly, I do try to re-use the baggie if possible.
